Baby guinea pig introduction!

[Princess_Harriet]

We decided to pick up the new baby tonight! The introduction is going pretty well. Lots of sniffing and hay eating. Harriet did mount her but only once. Just not sure when we should put them all in the cage?
I deep cleaned it so it's all ready for when they can all go together.
I'll post pictures later!

From other posts on here you want to wait for them nap. Eating is a positive sign. I had to resolidify my boys bond after rescue. I had my boys in the neutral area about 8-10 hours.

Other more experienced members will be along to chime in.

How exciting!
How long have they been in the neutral area? Those sound like positive signs. Mounting is a completely normal dominance behaviour and is nothing to worry about (the fact that it only happened once is also a good sign).
All going well, they can move into their cage together in the morning (or later in the evening) as they should be in the neutral area for a few hours at least.
Good luck! I'm looking forward to seeing pigtures

How exciting!
You can put them in the cage when they have been in neutral territory for several hours and have got through the early stages of bonding. As she is a baby though then the existing hierarchy shouldn’t be in question (baby should fit in at the bottom) and it sounds as if things are going well

Did you check baby is definitely female?
